Abstract
A retrospective 3-year survey of 311 patients sustaining 564 facial fractures in a medium-sized metropolitan area is presented. Etiology, distribution and treatment of these facial fractures are reported and compared with earlier studies, where changing patterns of etiology and treatment were noted. Contemporary knowledge of facial injuries is important if diagnosis and treatment are to be accurate and treatment optimal.Entities:
